Chad and Scott talk about Scott’s upbringing in a military family and his meteoric rise to the CFO of a publicly traded company. Scott grew up in upstate New York, received his Finance degree from Syracuse, and went to work as an investment banker. After a few years he knew he wanted more out of his career. He decided to move clear across the country to the West coast for B-school. This set off a series of career moves with smaller start-ups that quickly got him into the executive suite.
Scott goes into detail on unconventional moves he made that allowed him to quickly move into the executive suite and eventually hold the title of CFO for a publicly traded company. Anyone who has their eyes on the upper levels of financial management should tune in to hear this incredible journey.
